Abstract: Objective To investigate the regulatoty effect of GDF15 on the proliferation and gene expression of BMSCs and its mechanism. Methods The BMSCs were isolated and cultured from rat long bones. The proliferation and cell cycle of BMSCs cultured with different concentrations of recombinant GDF15 proteins were tested by Cell Counting Kit8 and flow cytometry respectively. The mRNA levels of ALP, RunX2, COL1, VEGF, bFGF and HIF1α in BMSCs under induction of GDF15 were detected by real time PCR. Results Under normoxia condition, GDF15 promoted proliferation, cell cycle progress and mRNA level of VEGF in BMSCs dosedependently, and 50 μg/L was the optimum concentration. Conclusion GDF15 promotes proliferation and VEGF gene expression in BMSCs in short time, but its mechanism still needs further study.
